Hwang Yoon-seok(黃胤錫) lived in 18C. At that time as conflicts in politics was becoming more acute in the central government`s main political parties, such as No-ron, So-ron and Nam-in. And there was the boundary between the central and local government. Also it was the time of a new challenge to the local intellectuals. Because of the appearance of new leadership, that is 'Gyunghwasajok' which was grown up in capital region, the local intellectuals' opportunity to participate in politics was dwindled away. Especially Hwang Yoon-seok came from Honam Province and he made efforts to establish his identity as part of No-ron to overcome his discrimination. So he asserted that he studied under Kim won-haeng and succeeded to the learning of Song si-yeaul. However, although Hwang Yoon-seok's academic standing was No-ron, his career as governmental officials was depended upon by influence of So-ron. He was recommended by So-ron which was against the opposing party, No-ron. It was possible for him to go into the central government. Afer all, his Career as Governmental Officials and political position was influenced by the political direction related to So-ron. Chungmyung Party was organized by No-ron which was joined hands with two other opposition parties, So-ron and Nam-in. Chungmyung Party was the new political force which supported King Jeongjo. Therefore Hwang Yoon-seok lightened the burden of political bitterness and he exchanged the relation of So-ron and No-ron party continuously. But Hwang Yoon-seok was ousted from office by hawkish No-ron party, a provincial governor Sim Iji and secret royal inspector Sim-Hwanji. Hwang Yoon-seok's life was a series of coming up to the capital and going down into the country. This fact is enough to show how a local intellectual was in a disadvantageous position. But he got over a difficult situation and achieved his academic works.
